  1. I believe cora and bres-slow handled the Devers situation badly, no doubt! but Devers and his agent caused too much of a distraction to the team and organization for Bres-slow to allow Devers to stay. San Fran graciously rescued us!! this trade was a win for the Red Sox organization!!
  2. 1.) bohm allows Mayer to slide to second base and bohm plays decent defense. 2.) painter has amazing stuff. Just needs to tighten up the secondaries after UCL surgery, 3.) matz does not have the strike out profile that bres-slow salivates over! Wilson did before he ran out of gas in August 4.) do we really want Casas spending time in Boston rebuilding his timing?? He looked awful last April and his timing is shot!!
  3. I am thinking we make 3 moves: 1.) we sign Alonso and Casas starts the year in Worcester. 2.) Duran for brohm and painter. 3.) resign Justin Wilson or sign another lefty reliever:
  4. Nobody bats 1.000 in trades. I love the job bres-slow has done thus far
  5. Desperate Dave is bringing schwarber back and then going after Suarez. But he probably loses realmuto though. and when he loses realmuto, he will hunger for Duran at the top of his lineup every day!! bres-slow just has to be patient and see how schwarber falls!!!!
  6. I have always tried to surround myself with people much smarter than me!! An organization. Is only as strong as its weakest link!!! if I am the weakest link, then my organization is really good!!!!
  7. If we have an offer for 4 years out there for Alonso, then surely bres-slow out an expiration date on the offer??? Or did bres-slow put identical orders for schwarber and Alonso and first one to say yes by the expiration date wins???
  8. Desperate Dave’s window is closing. He knows this year is his last chance. he will sell his mother’s kidneys to get another ring
  9. Casas has an option left. We should send him back to Worcester to get the rust off!!! Duran for Tong and vientos (Mets) Grade = A- Duran for brohm and painter (Phillies) Grade = A Duran for cecconi and arias (guardians) Grade = B +
  10. I did see a report that the Red Sox offered 4 years to Alonso!! I think bres-slow may have lost his mind doing that, but we shall see
  11. Arizona wants 2 pitchers is what the writers are saying
  12. Injuries are a huge part of baseball!! And faulting the GM is a sad reality!!! Now some of the terrible scrap heap pitchers hang’em Chaim signed and hang’em Chaim trotting out the worst defensive team in the majors several years in a row, those moves fall into the stupid boneheaded GM moves. but injuries have always been and always will be a reality in this game!!! Nobody to blame.
  13. Never been a fan of schwarber or Alonso, but I think our offseason success or failure is tied to where schwarber signs !!
  14. Haha!! Cutter seems like a guy that could go to Tampa and win 12 games and bres-slow would be ripped for trading him!!!!
  15. Exactly!! I think luck is confused with perspective. Not luck with Chapman, just a different perspective. Like Wong teaching Chapman how to throw so his pitches do not float over the heart of the plate! Like the Red Sox getting him to throw that slider looking pitch more!
  16. Love this hire!!! It does not fill the massive hole left by the guy that bolted for the nationals, but this is as solid a hire as we could hope for!!!
  17. Doesn’t schwarber hit left handed?? Do we really need another lefty?
  18. Isn’t he from Brooklyn?? Not the most family friendly type neighborhood. Have you any proof he is nice to his mother???
  19. We do not have to trade an outfielder!! There are plenty of at bats to go around! However, figuring out the at bat distribution gets much easier for everybody if bres-slow can move yoshida, even if the Sox have to eat a large chunk of the yoshida contract, aka the chris sale trade!!!!!
  20. And why shouldn’t owners be competitive and love making money???
  21. I see Guzman at Arizona. Cannon for an arm! Outside of that, what is there to like about him????
  22. We do need left handed relievers!!!
  23. I thought they dfa’d Criswell ( now a met) for the reliever.
  24. 2025 draft picks from Tennessee and lsu.
